Patient Satisfaction
Leave a review
How likely are you to recommend Dr. Wierks?
Dr. Wierks and Kevin do a great job! I had a labral repair and bone shave in my hip. From my first appointment to my final appointment I never felt rushed and felt very comfortable asking any questions. I felt confident Dr. Wierks knew what he was doing in the surgery. Additionally, I am a physical therapist and he has a great protocol for optimal healing.
